==Introduction==
==Overview==
At a beach, an inflatable [[Thwomp]] falls onto the ground, and the camera zooms out, revealing a second inflatable Thwomp as the teams land on each respective one. In ''Mario Party: The Top 100'', the Thwomps have their modern facial expression instead.

The minigame opens with a scene of an inflatable [[Thwomp]] dropping to the ground.


==Gameplay==
Both teams [[Ground Pound|ground-pound]] their inflatable blue Thwomp repeatedly with the goal of deflating it entirely. Ground Pounds from higher [[jump]]s deflate the Thwomp further. The first team to meet the objective wins, but if neither team does so within 30 seconds, it is a tie.
Players must [[Ground Pound|ground-pound]] an inflatable blue Thwomp made of rubber enough to completely deflate it. The higher the [[jump]] before the Ground Pound, the more air gets deflated. The first team to completely deflate its Thwomp wins.

In ''Mario Party 4,'' the team that deflated its Thwomp will celebrate while the losing team sulks.
